Scope of the workshop
The intersection of water scarcity and rapid urbanization, exacerbated by climate change and aging infrastructure, poses significant challenges to global water supply. However, the proliferation of sensor technology, IoT, Digital Twin and advancements in artificial intelligence and edge computing provide us with powerful tools to monitor, assess, and manage our water resources more effectively.
The workshop invites papers that explore innovative remote sensing and modeling techniques for water resource management. This could include detecting, quantifying, and monitoring water supply system, identifying potential threats, and other themes related to water resources and environmental management at various spatial scales.
The workshop will be held exclusively in-person in Limassol, Cyprus on May 26, 2025. The workshop is held within the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) Networking 2025 Conference.
